The winner was Austria’s Stefan Kraft, while second place went to Germany's Andreas Wellinger.
Other Polish ski jumpers also did well in the competition - Maciej Kot ranked sixth, Kamil Stoch seventh, followed by Dawid Kubacki in eighth place.
Żyła’s win was somewhat of a surprise, as Stoch, currently in the lead in the general classification, and Kot, who recently won two competitions in Asia, were favourites. (mol/pk)
